End of part 1
Asus ROG Zephyrus is a premium line of gaming laptops that merges maximum performance with unique design and functional solutions. The hallmark has always been the AAS which stands for cooling with a flexible portion of the bottom that would uplift the notebook a few mm. On the other side of the portfolio there are ZenBooks, where Pro Duo with two displays attracted our interest last year. A new flagship, that merges the best that the manufacturer can offer, is here.
Conclusion of Part 1
In the first part of the test, we subjected the Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 GX550 to both gaming and work performance tests. In most cases, the new Zephyrus is unrivaled and the differences from the competition are in the tens of percent. The port selection, build quality and functions of the ROG ScreenPad Plus predestine the notebook to a great companion whether you would use it for gaming or work. Its relatively low weight is also surprising, or at least I expected it to be significantly heavier, either due to the secondary display or the need to cool the most powerful components available.
In the second part, we will take a closer look at the main display, the remaining tests, but also compare the performance modes that the notebook offers. Of course, there will also be battery life and temperature tests. Finally, we will make some overall evaluation with the pros and cons of this non-traditional device.
